Yes, you can safely travel to India. Talk to your immigration attorney. Husband will need all the documents proving he is still maintaining valid H-1B status in the US: tax returns, W-2, letter from employer addressed to the consulate confirming employment, as well as copy of last 3 paystubs.

If your husband's H-1B extension has been approved, he will need to apply for an H-1B visa stamp next time he travels abroad. You can apply for an H-4 dependent visa at the same time he applies or thereafter. Your husband should discuss any questions related to his H-1B visa stamping or related issues with the attorney who filed the H-1B on his behalf.

The company/ their immigration attorneys should be able to guide your husband about visa requirements at the Consulate.
